Nuclear takes forever, 10-19 years from planning-to-operation, or gets abandoned. About half the nuclear reactors ever ordered in the US were canceled. New wind and solar farms take 2-5 years from planning-to-operation.

Nuclear power is practically dead. Look at the Vogtle nuclear plant being constructed in the US. It's taking forever as always, and the projected cost has spiraled from an original $4.4B to an estimated $25B including financing costs.

We're out of tomorrows. In Canada, existing hydroelectric reservoirs can act as giant batteries. Wind, solar, and efficiency measures are affordable, as are a myriad of storage solutions. These project costs are falling, they scale rapidly, and consistently come in on time and budget. None of this holds true for nuclear power.
